The funny thing is TL says she believes in God, but for her God is some sort of abstraction, not a real Person as He is for theists. She's much like J...

So what are you suggesting?
July 21, 2017 at 12:00
No, for if I had called myself that, then I'd be walking around with a target on my back, just like you are :)
July 21, 2017 at 11:57
Haven't read that thread I'm afraid. You didn't give me permission to comment in it, so why bother? :P
July 21, 2017 at 11:52
What grandeur are you talking about? You yourself said I am a meekly worm, so what grandeur can I even aspire to? :D
July 21, 2017 at 11:51
Because I've used Facebook before? I said I haven't signed up on Instagram btw above... :-} And someone could know about Facebook likes without having...
July 21, 2017 at 11:47
Why do you want to escape from it? It's who you are. Things aren't bad in themselves, but it's your judgement that makes it so - actually society's ju...

How would I know, I haven't bothered to even sign up there :P Lived experience is nothing. People don't actually control their fate and destiny. There...

>:O which movie is that from?
July 21, 2017 at 11:30
But I think your victory is illusory, for it does not last, but quite the contrary, it is forgotten by all - it is pure ego, lacking any objective suc...
July 21, 2017 at 11:25
Sure, but on facebook you don't really meet new people. The way it's formed, you're kind of restricted to your friends' network (and their friends). I...
July 21, 2017 at 11:21
I don't really get where your comment is coming from but okay... lol I'm not sure what you mean here. Sure, you can meet people online and make friend...

This is called proof of bias ;)
July 21, 2017 at 11:12
Ahh that is good news then. It means I am spared from going to war, and people always underestimate me, therefore I stand a good chance to win. Better...

Once you setup that book shop, she will be able to buy your books in exchange for cakes, how about that? >:) (I would let her do that too, but I'm afr...
July 21, 2017 at 11:07
But you have 100 likes? Yeah right >:O >:O >:O >:O
July 21, 2017 at 11:03
Are those your FB friends? >:)
July 21, 2017 at 10:56
>:O >:O >:O >:O Oooh how strong 8-)
July 21, 2017 at 10:52
Oh wow, you've found a way to smell me through the internet? Quite cool! >:O
July 21, 2017 at 10:50
>:O >:O >:O I have a friend who is exactly like you - she travels to the most dangerous places (I have no idea why anyone would go there - such as Syr...
July 21, 2017 at 10:47
Exactly ;) X-)
July 21, 2017 at 10:32

Those ideals are long gone my friend - for most people. You think Obama was preserving the ideals the US was founded on? Give me a break...
July 21, 2017 at 08:44
X-) I like it. What would you be selling? And I suppose we would have to take care of transport if our book gets sold? Or we'd all have to mail our bo...

Unfortunately for Peterson, I think that Sam Harris does have a point there. But then Peterson's "Christianity" isn't real Christianity to begin with ...
July 20, 2017 at 21:09
>:O I don't want to mention any names now!! :P
July 20, 2017 at 20:46
But yes, I agree with Michael, FB is entirely useless.
July 20, 2017 at 17:11
Why, did your parents not let you have facebook until you were a grown up boy? X-) That seems to be quite a common trend nowadays...
July 20, 2017 at 17:07
Next time you may get bitten man, I'd be careful with hitting dogs in the face if I were you >:O

Why did he not outsmart Nero and take the Empire from his incapable hands?! :s Seneca sounds like he wasn't very savvy with regards to this... Instead...

>:O Favorite philosophy book would be an interesting one. Not sure what I'd put there...
July 20, 2017 at 14:00
I said "I presume", not that I'm sure of it. Perhaps I can help you with a pair of glasses? :D :D
July 20, 2017 at 13:22
My movie & pop culture knowledge is almost non-existent, as I almost never watch any of that mainstream stuff. Because I presume you're referencing so...
July 20, 2017 at 13:18
Sorry, I don't spend my time watching that kinda stuff, have no clue who that is ;)

July 20, 2017 at 13:06
Oh. Outstanding achievement! :P
July 20, 2017 at 13:04
Maybe Schopenhauer would actually agree with that :P
July 20, 2017 at 12:58
That would be quite tragic >:O
July 20, 2017 at 12:57
I'd say that it's a good thing to repel the bad people and a good thing to attract the good people, would you disagree with me? :)
July 20, 2017 at 12:56
Well I think it's more interesting who was the first.
July 20, 2017 at 12:52
You're not the first to say that >:O
July 20, 2017 at 12:45
Oh dear... I hope Baden doesn't jump on me >:O
July 20, 2017 at 12:40
I think you're in need of this wisdom, not Seneca's. :-* :D :P

Ah maybe like that. But I guess kids these days with the internet discover swearing far earlier than we did ;)
